The hotel is in a great location and while nothing terrible happened, don’t expect a 4 or 5 star resort as this is not it. The hotel and amenities are dated, there is no room service and basic requests were unable to accommodate ( eg quoted a charge of $50 to have a microwave to sterilize my infants bottles, could not arrange surf rental on our behalf). Overall, the staff we encountered were friendly but frankly it just didn’t seem ‘worth it’. We liked the little bakery in the morning for a muffin and a coffee but otherwise ventured off site for meals. The pool is small and the lounge chairs limited and uncomfortable (thing 90s banded loungers). Food by the pool was good. Spent most of our time eating at the Moana Surf Rider which was actually cheaper than the Royal Hawaiian and overall a better hotel in my opinion.

The historic room was in very good condition. The housekeeper was very friendly and made me feel welcome. The gardens and peaceful environment is wonderful. The breakfast restaurant is extremely expensive and just okay. I really missed having a balcony to sit out on and also for drying bathing suits. The comes with a huge nice quality tv, however the internet speed was so slow that the tv was unusable. Overall I enjoyed my stay :)

Beautiful resort

Resort is beautiful. Staff are fabulous - so friendly and helpful. Our room was spacious and Ned was very comfortable. However, our aircon was very noisy so we couldn’t hear the TV or have it on at night. Everything else was wonderful.

This property badly needs a major upgrade in terms of furniture, carpet/flooring, restrooms, hallways, bathrooms. Royal Hawaiian provides excellent service and amenities that speak of luxury, however, everything appears so shabby and dated. The Azure restaurant should consider changing chefs as the food in the fixed menu dinner was not good. Valet and guest services are excellent. But tipping becomes very costly.

We LOVE this hotel. This was our 7th time staying here, and we will continue to stay there well into the future. From the minute you get there, you are treated with respect and like family (ohana). The grounds are immaculately maintained and there are flowers and good scents around every corner. I will note - prices are outrageous. Drinks at the Mai Tai bar are great, but service is a little slow and very pricey. We ate at Azure for breakfast and it was a GREAT experience. Elaine, our server, was amazing and made it that much better. If you can swing it, get a beach umbrella. It gives you guaranteed shade and a place to sit and that is priceless. The hotel is located in a prime spot. Great breach, but also right in the middle of the city. You can walk anywhere. There are plenty of spots to shop and eat within walking distance. Don't be afraid to get off the main street and try a little restaurant and offers local food. Well worth it. Royal Hawaiian - we can't wait to come back next year.

Paid for a deluxe suite with an ocean view… was given a suite on the second floor with a view of palm fronds obscuring the entire ocean view. Requested a higher floor and was told that they had no other rooms available in the historic building. After living in Hawaii for over 20 years, this turned out to be the worst staycation experience ever. The woman who checked us in, was cold and unwelcoming. Waikiki has certainly lost its previous quality of service, while it has gotten even more expensive. Maybe okay, if you’re a once in a lifetime visitor to Hawaii, but we know better and this is not the way we wanted to spend our staycation. If you’re a local, go somewhere else, if you’re a visitor, good luck. Told us we had to check out at 1pm, even though we had their email that said we could check out at 2pm, because we were Gold Elite level Bonvoy members. But the manager wouldn’t even fulfill the basic benefits of our Bonvoy membership status. Showed him the email and he said he could only do 1pm, and that was after questioning who had sent me the email. Finally, it was the most uncomfortable bed we ever slept in. Both our backs were hurting after this stay.
